Okay, with 3 days left, it's time to write a top-of-the-world or celebration poem. Even if your overall collection is a downer, try to find something related to your theme to celebrate. After all, you have 2 more days to get back to your overall mood.
Here's my attempt for the day:
"He's dead"
The monster is dead,
we chopped off his head;
the vampire is gone,
sun burned him at dawn;
the mummy's kaput,
unwrapped head to foot;
the werewolf done died,
and nobody cried.
